What is the blessing on items cooked or fried after being formed with thick dough?
Synopsis
If initial dough is thick but later loosened with water and cooked or fried, no Hamotzi blessing applies, only borei me'nei mezonot. An opinion disagrees, saying if dough initially was thick, Hamotzi applies even after cooking/frying. Custom is lenient, but pious individuals should eat after blessing on other bread first.
